First day in Liverpool

I'm running a little behind on my posts, but I've been extremely busy/worn out. Yesterday was my first official day (without jet-lag) in Liverpool. We had orientation day where we received our lovely student ID cards. After a full day of getting to know campus, the crew and I decided to take our first double decker bus adventure to city centre, downtown Liverpool. On the way to downtown, we passed penny lane and I almost passed out from excitement. I got the whole bus to start singing Penny Lane by the Beatles. I cannot wait for the day where I get to take the FabFour Beatles tour.
The city was amazing and there were so many beautiful buildings. We also stumbled upon the popular store named Primark, where everything is around 3 to 6 pounds each. There were tons of shops, pubs, clubs, and schools. We saw so many children in their school uniforms walking around downtown. They were absolutely adorable with their accents and ballet flats. After we explored the city we had dinner and called it a night. We were all so exhausted. Tuesday we will be starting our first seminars and having things assigned. So it's back to the reality that I'm here for school and not just sight seeing :)

Cheers,
Liv
